EZ-Guide

EZ-Guide - March, 2006

The EZ-Guide gives the reader an overall view of the Caltrans project delivery process. The EZ-Guide is to be used as a quick reference. It identifies the essential standards, conventions and work flow processes Caltrans utilizes in developing roadway design projects.

The information in the EZ-Guide comes from the CADD Users Manual and Plans Preparation Manual. Any changes, modifications or additions to Caltrans standards, conventions or work flow processes will be included only in the CADD Users Manual or Plans Preparation Manual (not the EZ-Guide).
